Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Sexuality is an important part of being human, yet it can be surprisingly difficult to find a place where you can talk about it openly and without judgment. I work with individuals and couples on concerns related to desire, intimacy, sexual communication, sexual functioning, differing levels of desire, shame, identity, and creating more satisfying sexual relationships. My approach is sex-positive, kink-aware, and affirming of consensual BDSM, alternative relationship structures, and diverse expressions of sexuality. You shouldn’t have to censor yourself or worry about shocking your therapist—we can talk honestly about what’s happening, what you want, and what may be getting in the way.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Sex therapy addresses concerns related to desire, arousal, intimacy, and sexual self-expression within the broader context of emotional and relational life. My work integrates psychoanalytic methods, clinical sexology, hypnosis, and somatic awareness to explore the deeper meanings beneath sexual struggles. Together, we work toward a more coherent, embodied, and authentic relationship with desire and intimacy.

Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
I do some sex therapy typically with my couples that get stuck in a rut and losing some of the sexy joy of sexual intimacy. But I also help individuals work through issues around sex to whether it be performance anxiety, difficulties with sex drive, exploring sexuality, or really anything else in this realm.

Springfield is Missouri's third-largest city and the hub of the Ozarks region, home to Missouri State University and several other colleges, which gives it an active student population alongside a broader community of families, retirees, and healthcare and service sector workers. The cultural landscape of southwest Missouri is predominantly evangelical and conservative, which influences how mental health is perceived in the community, though awareness and acceptance of therapy have grown considerably in recent years. CoxHealth and Mercy Hospital both operate significant behavioral health programs in Springfield, making the city an important regional resource for mental health care across the rural Ozarks. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, faith and religious identity, family and relationship issues, and the particular stresses of navigating mental health care in a region where stigma is gradually but meaningfully declining.
